Spyfall - Pilot (Game Over - Spy Win)

Post Post #0 (isolation #0) » Fri Mar 02, 2018 9:24 pm

Post by Beefster »

Overview


Spyfall is a social hidden-role game. One player is secretly the spy, with all the other players having a location and a role that is relevant to the location. Players take turns asking questions to each other, trying to figure out who the spy is without revealing the location. Meanwhile, the spy is trying to figure out the location without seeming like they do not know where they are.

Gameplay


At all times, it will be some player's turn to ask a question to another player. You should address the player with an @player and bold the question with it. When you respond to a question, you should quote the question and then answer it after the quote. After the question has been answered, it is your turn to ask a question. You may address a question to anyone other than the player who addressed you.

At any time, players can cast votes using [ vote ] tags, indicating that they think the voted player is the spy. If at any point 6/8 players have voted a player, the game ends. If the player chosen by the vote is the spy, then the town wins. Otherwise, the spy wins.

At any time, the spy can declare that they are the spy and has one guess at the location. If they are correct (reasonably speaking), then the spy wins. Otherwise the town wins.

If the deadline is reached and neither of these conditions has been met, the spy has one shot to guess the location. If they guess correctly, the spy wins. Otherwise the town wins. The spy will have 24 hours to make their guess.

Unlike the face-to-face version, you will be able to talk freely about your suspicions, HOWEVER, you may not ask questions freely. Be cautious with this as it may reveal the location or your identity as the spy.

Please, no encrypted text. If you take longer than 24 hours to respond to a question addressed to you, you will be prodded.

This iteration, the game will last 1 week, but extensions will be granted if I deem them necessary.

Typically a game will go longer than this, but hopefully that gives you an idea of how this should work.

On hiatus indefinitely. This was a nice distraction when I was working through my faith transition out of Mormonism, but I need to move on to bigger and better things now.

Also what is the list of places you're using?
Yeah. Just 1 spy. If this goes well, I'll try 12 players with 2 spies.

I added possible locations to the opening post. One will be chosen randomly and roles will be made up to match. Random.org will be used for everything.

sorry about the lack of prod. My PSU died in my main rig (leaving me with my old laptop) and I spent most of yesterday cleaning my apartment. The deadline will be extended by 24 hours.

My advice: don't build your computer unless you
really know what you're doing
. It isn't worth it. No support and more points of failure.

No extension. 1 week seems to be about right IMO. If anything, 1 week is actually too long.

I suspect the spy has a massive advantage here. Perhaps having 2 spies in the next game (town wins if either is voted, 8/12 votes needed) will give the town a little boost. The spies will know each other but not have private chat.

Also, unrelated update on my gaming rig: no dice on PSU. I have officially given up and bought an Alienware to replace it. I wish I had done that in the first place because it would have only cost me about $100 more in the end. Hopefully I'll be able to recoup a good amount of that cost by selling the old rig or its parts. I'm not really hurting for cash though, so it sucks more than it hurts. :-/
